Most likely, the oscillator in the drive unit is broken. You will find this part for model 7680 at shaversource.com. See link below for product and helpful disassembly video
If it simply does not work at all, the circuit board is probably damaged. This is not repairable and you will need to buy a replacement. You will find a new clean and charge base at shaveroutlet.com. See link below
If the shaver is completely dead and the charging lights no longer illuminate when plugged in, the circuit board will need changed. If they still illuminate when plugged in, you can just change the batteries.
You will find the batteries and also the circuit board with batteries at shaveroutlet.com. You can order which you require. See links below
To replace, you will need to gently pry off the cap that surrounds the cord hle on the bottom. Once removed, the side grips will pull away easily revealing 4 screws on the back. Remove screws to take the bask of case off and then lift out the 'guts'. Reassemble in reverse order
I just experienced the same problem and came up with this solution. Use a spring clamp to keep the top of the charging stand in place. It works like a charm.
(I know the link says foil cutter, but it takes you to Braun lubricating oil!)
I apply the lubricating oil to the foil etc, then the word "oil" disappears. Then after a while the word "oil" comes back and I apply the oil again and so on, my shaver still performs normally.
